A penumbral eclipse of the Moon occurred on 16 February, 0672 BC UT Old Style, with maximum eclipse at 06:54 UT. In this extremely marginal eclipse, the Moon barely clipped the edge of the Earth's penumbral shadow. This caused a microscopic darkening of just 18% of the Moon's disc for 1 hour and 52 minutes, which was essentially impossible to see.

The penumbral eclipse lasted for 1 hour and 52 minutes. Maximum eclipse was at 06:54:07 UT.
